The Winds of Wonder

“A poem shaped in Beauty’s living heart”

A new sight is won, it seeing which was never seen,

A figure of beauty that houses flaming truth in it;

Enthused words run like steeds of faultless strength,

Winning the trophies of epic marvels and deeds;

They even cross into a world where speech is

The light of the spirit that knows both day and night;

Now truth is made more beautiful by the smile

That has the magic to give to life its own joy.

“सौन्दर्यस्य जीवितहृदयात्मकं काव्यम्” ।

नवीनं दर्शनं जियते यत् पश्यति यत् कदापि न दृष्टम्,

तस्मिन् ज्वलन्तं सत्यं निवसन्ती सौन्दर्यस्य आकृतिः;

निर्दोषबलाश्वा इव उत्साहिताः वचनानि धावन्ति।

महाकाव्यचमत्कारानाम्, कृत्यानां च चषकान् जित्वा;

ते अपि एकं जगत् लङ्घयन्ति यत्र वाक् भवति

अहर्निशं च जानाति यः आत्मानः प्रकाशः;

इदानीं सत्यं स्मितेन सुन्दरतरं भवति

तस्य जीवनाय स्वस्य आनन्दं दातुं जादुः अस्ति।
